Arizona State Capitol Police (ACSP) is the law enforcement agency responsible for the State Capitol Mall in Phoenix, Arizona and the Tucson State Complex.

This police agency is currently under the jurisdiction of the Arizona Department of Administration, although there have been plans throughout the years to eventually merge it with the Arizona Department of Public Safety.

The agency's primary patrol car is the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, painted white with blue and gold pinstripes and marked with an ACSP badge on the door. A more modern black and white design was introduced in late 2007 and is expected to be phased in as cars with the old design are retired from service.

The Arizona State Capitol Police now have black and white patrol cars, with a more modern design. The patch has also been updated to black with gray letters, along with a new badge. Talks are still on table to eventually merge the Arizona State Capitol Police with the Department of Public Safety.
